I ordered these same wheels from **********s with a 275/30 rear and I am VERY HAPPY with my decision. They only rub a wee bit when we hit a big bump like a bridge overpass or something like that. But nothing major! her car is no lowered at all though. If you roll the fenders or plan to, then you DEFINITELY have no worries. I would suggest the 275's just because it looks better and gives a bit more cushion to those sweet wheels. That is my input, take it or leave it...

I got my wheels from Mod Bargains as well. I went with the 235/35 front and 265/30 rear setup with the same offset as you with Goodyear Eagle F1 GS-D3 tires. No rubbing at all and the car looks amazing and handles like a mofo!

Do yourself a favor and glue on the ///M logos. I had two of them come off and Mod Bargains were nice enough to mail me replacements at no cost. I took off the other two that were still on and then glued all 4 on my wheels with an automotive adhesive. I'm sure crazy glue will work too .

I am still waiting for my "M" stickers to arive....
There was a mix up with the orders (or something like that), and now I have to wait, who knows how long, to get my stickers...

Oh, thanks for the input -- I dont think I will roll my fenders if it only rubs over big bumps

Looks good! I ordered 275 Generals for the rear, too, so I'm glad you don't have any major issues. My rear offset is +35, so that extra little bit might do the trick for bridges, etc.

All 335 coupes come standard with the sport suspension, even if you dont have the sport pack, which I have.

Greetings from Germany.
I want to buy M6 replica wheels for my 335i with M Sport Package.
I have found on ebay, that some sell many M6 replica in Italy.

However these sizes are 8,5 x 19 et 12 at the front and 9.5 x 19 et 17 at the rear.

Cam I use the or do I need to go with ET30rear and ET35 in the fron?

I aprreciate your help.

Won't fit, way too agressive of an offset.

Cool man, but I'm having a hard time finding the gunmetal.
They look like the regular M6s.

Is the gunmetal inbetween the spokes?

The gunmetal is inside of the lip and on the sides of the spokes.
